Federal money

We know that low income, middle income need cash in this tight economy. So how about a currency that is a compliment to cash, similar to a discount coupon, or digital credit, or a low carbon credit. Can you imagine several kinds of money that flow around the Mahoning Watershed and come back and stay in the local economy. A currency that connects producers with customers, labor with need, giving with receiving.

Federal money is designed to be scarce and leave town to trickle up or out to go off shore. We can do better with better money. Members of the Time Bank Mahoning Valley are now trading in a better currency, exchanging time among a community membership is simply better money and a wise time investment. Do you want better currency?
